From what i have heard and seen, King Springs are good, and the commo shocks allow good axle travel/articulation, this combo is good if you dont want to spend to much...
Another option not mentioned, may be a Dobinson 40mm Kit, still fairly cheap...

I have the Performance Rated ( +50kg ) 35mm Ironman Kit on my GV, and i am very happy with it, got more than 35mm lift in the rear, 55mm empty, its perfect for what i wanted and needed, its the same one on ebay, and they arnt too expensive if funds are low... i use my GV 90% road, and 10% Offroad, and handling both off and on road, has improved alot, havnt had any under body bangs or scrapes offroad since fitted...

It really depends on what you expect of your Vit, and if will be mostly road, with the weekend offroad, or doing alot offroad, and how much of a load will be in your Vit, like a load of camping gear, or 4 or 5 people... as to what make and option you choose, as the springs will have different load/firmness/handling settings.. complete suspensio kits usually come as a midrange option... so these are all things to consider... hope this helps... :wink:

If your not going any bigger then 30 inch tyres go lifted kings, strut mount flip on the front and commo shocks in the rear.

Also if you need spacers to level it out letme know. I have a set lying around.
